This is so very random and pretty much not needed. I don't see the point of coming out with this or saying that any person over the age of 15 is partially gay for reading her book. It's not insulting...but it's really just uncalled for to retrocaticly mess with beloved characters.
I feel like its the south park where they stopped the directors from messing with their films. Dumbldore no longer belongs to her, he belongs to everyone who read and enjoyed the books. She messed with his character makeup in a way that was not needed at all.

No, she just clarified. It would be like if there were a character whose last name was never mentioned in the text, and Rowling made one up and gave it to him/her. Dumbledore didn't go from straight to gay, he went to unknown sexuality to known sexuality.

I guess I could see it like that. I just think it is very random and almost pointless to do this at this point. I don't know why this would help the series out as a whole. It just seems like she is throwing that out there so that she can stir up some forced controversy.
